My first submission goes out tomorrow! Jan 30. It's back!

[Bill1]

Using the free 4 coupon, and reading about everyone's advice on packing. This will be the before, and in a 2 (or 3) months, the after!

Just think, you'll be drawing SS (Social Security) when the books come back.

Congrats. What are you thinking/hoping for grade wise. Please don't say 10.

[Bill1]

I have no real idea what to expect, as it is my first submission. 9.6's, maybe 9.8? We shall see! They look good to me, but what do I know!

Is the Bone #1 a first print?

Yup.

I have been meaning to read bone for ages. Picked up a trade yesterday and LOVE IT!

[The-Collector]

Good luck with the submission.

[Aces]

Good luck with it.

 

Count how many grey hairs you get waiting for them to come back.

[Jeffro.]

Nice Bone!

[zosocane]

Can't help but comment -- is the time- and date-stamp to memorialize the last time you saw those books? .

 

just kidding, they will be fine enjoying a Winter vacation in Sarasota.

[Bill1]

I am prepared for it to take a while, but am doing what I can to speed it up by overnighting both ways-- that will knock of 5 or 6 days anyway!

9.4 9.6 9.6 9.2

Actually, the Bone is probably the nicest one....

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at how fast the books come back. The coupon is for 15 day service, and when I used the coupon at the end of last year they came back in about 3-4 weeks. I think CGC wants to maintain good turnarounds on the coupon to get you to re-up next year.

 

Also, fast track works well. I just did modern fast track on 10 comics and it was about 3 weeks. I posted about it here http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Main=282945&Number=6278023#Post6278023

 

(also, good luck on the Bone. I just read it and loved it. I've been shopping for a 1st print of #1 but no luck yet.)

Wouldn't it have been cheaper and quicker for the OP to send in these books by Modern fast track?

Yes - using coupons for books that can be submitted under the modern tier (even when they're fast-tracked) always means that you're not really utilizing the value of the coupons.

 

But, hey, perhaps these 4 are the only books he's going to submit?
